सदृशीरद्य सदृशीरिदु श्वो दीर्घं सचन्ते वरुणस्य धाम । अनवद्यास्त्रिंशतं योजनान्येकैका क्रतुं परि यन्ति सद्यः ॥

sadṛ́śīr adyá sadṛ́śīr íd u śvó dīrgháṃ sacante váruṇasya dhā́ma | anavadyā́s triṃśatáṃ yójanāny ékā-ekā krátum pári yanti sadyáḥ ||

วันนี้ก็เหมือนกัน พรุ่งนี้ก็เหมือนกันอีก; นางทั้งหลายติดตามแดนไกลโพ้นแห่งวรุณะ (Varuṇa). ไร้มลทิน แต่ละนางโดยลำพัง ทว่าพร้อมกันก็ข้ามระยะสามสิบโยชนะ โคจรรอบการทำงานแห่งครตุ (krátu, เจตจำนง/ปรีชาการกระทำ); ดังนี้วันทั้งหลายจึงครบถ้วนในกฎแห่งความกว้างใหญ่ (ṛta).
